If you are making a gar
ment, you certainly want it to
keep its shape and fit and not
twist at the seams after be
ing laundred or dry cleaned.
In order to prevent this, it
must be cut straight with the
grain in contruction. This
means, when the fabric is laid
out for cutting, the lenthwise
yarns must run straight up and
down, with the crosswise yarns
at right angles to them.
Straighten the ends by tearing
across the fabric or cutting
along a crosswise yarn. Pull
out one or two crosswise yarns
to help you cut and then cut
through the open space.
After both ends have been
straightened, fold the fabric in
half, lengthwise with the sel
vages together. If one side deops
considerably below the other,
the yarns need to be pulled back
into place.
To pull the yarns in place,
pull diagonally on the fabric,
from the corner that is lower
to the opposite selvage. Con
tinue to pull across the width
of the fabric and down the sides
until the yarns are straight.

This week we draw upon in
formation in the monthly pub
lication of the Georgia Agri
cultural Commodity Commis
sion for Peanuts. They report
the successful use of peanut but
ter to stop hiccoughs. It was
tried after reading the follow
ing statement from a book:
“Many a lasting case, or even
shorter attack, of hiccoughs
surrenders to a small teaspoon
of peanut butter. A second
spoonful is rarely necessary."
I wonder if it really
("Hiccup”) works.

Fill the washer with HOT
water and add a non-precip
itating water softener. A non
precipitating softener is one
that leaves the water clear,
not cloudy. Use about one and
one-half to two cups. You may
add about one-half cup of house-
an added conditioning agent.
Allow the clothes to go
through the complete cycle. Do
not add detergent. That which
is already in the clothes will
form active, usable suds when
enough softener has been added.
It may be necessary to follow
this procedure for several
washings if the dingy condition
is bad. After stripping the film
off the clothes, run through one
more cycle using HOT water and
no detergent.
Once the clothes are white
and bright again, keep them that
way. Be sure that water is 140-
160 degrees in the washer. If
it isn’t, set the water heater
thermostat higher.
Find a detergent you like and
stick with it. Don’t guess at
the amount. Check the deter
gent box for the suggested a-
mount for the type washer you
have. Use this as a guide only.
Find the amount you need for a
regular load by measuring, us
ing standard measuring cups,
and adding until there is about
an inch of suds on top of the
water. Keep account of the a-
mount you added and use it for
future washings.
. The amount to use increases
with water hardness, size of
load, and the degree of soil
of the clothes.
It is no problem to keep
clothes white and bright if you
follow instructions. It pays I

Woodcraft Boys
Enjoy Outing
The Boys of Woodcraft J
1428 made a trip to Ander-
sonville on Sunday. Herbert
Tante, Edward Benns, Luther
Spillers and T. E. Tante ac
companied the nineteen boys
who made the trip.
After a tour of the cemetery
and park, the boys enjoyed the
biggest treat of all, food at
the Dairy Queen on the way
home.
use two bushels per acre. For
grazing you need to use four
bushels per acre.
One final reminder, plant
treated, certified seed, and we
hope that you have already test
ed your soil so you know the
correct fertilizer to use, plus
your lime standing.
We are often asked when is
the best time to take a soil
test.
Actually, a soil test may be
taken any time of the year.
However, you should allow at
least a month for your recom
mendations to be returned to
you.
For your spring plantings, it
is best to take the soil test in
October, November, December,
and January.
Soil tests for fall plantings
are best taken during June, July,
and August.
The soil sample and the in
formation sheet should be filled
out and returned to my office.
If you need soil test bags and
information sheets contact my
office.
Don't guess, soil test.
Lime for Pastures
Fall is the proper time to
apply lime to your Bermuda
Grass and similar pastures.
Soil tests should be taken at
the start of the fall season so
that the results can be returned
to you in time to do good.
If lime is applied in the fall
it will have time to become
effective by the time the grow
th begins in the spring.
Another reason for applying
lime in the fall is that it will
condition the soil so that the
maximum benefit can be ob
tained from the fertilizer you
apply in the winter.
If you need additional in
formation, contact my office.

The Taylor County (Ga.) News, Friday, August 31, 1H2 -
This is the Man
WHO DID SO MUCH
For Georgia During
THE
Griffin Years
★ ★ ★ ★
Read The Record for Yourself
1— BOUGHT STONE MOUNTAIN — For de
cades, completion of the Stone Mountain
Confederate Memorial was a dream shared by
all Georgians. Under Governor Griffin, the
Stone Mountain Memorial Association was
created to make this dream come true. Where
others had failed, Governor Griffin succeed
ed.
2— DID MORE FOR EDUCATION THAN ANY
OTHER GOVERNOR IN THE HISTORY OF
THE STATE — A1I over Georgia — on col
lege campuses and local school grounds —
new buildings rose during the Griffin Years.
In addition, school teachers were given an
across-the-board pay raise every year Marvin
Griffin was in office.
3— GEORGIA TECH REACTOR — Governor
Griffin aUocated funds for a nuclear reactor
and radioisotopes laboratory at Georgia
Tech — a $5,500,000 facility that has put
Georgia in the forefront of the Nuclear Age.
4— SCIENCE CENTER AT THE UNIVERSITY
OF GEORGIA—Governor Griffin aUocated
millions for the construction of this vast
Science Center at the University, so that our
future scientists would have the very best
laboratories and equipment available.
5— RURAL ROADS—The Rural Roads Authori
ty was Governor Griffin’s pet project. A
$100,000,000 Rural Roads construction pro
gram provided hard surface roads in all sec
tions of the state. During the four years he
was in office, more than 5,000 miles of rural
roads alone were constructed in all of Geor
gia’s 159 counties.
6— EXPRESSWAYS—A large mileage of Fe
deral-aid primary and secondary roads were
constructed during the Griffin Years; the
Inter-state Highway System was begun, and
milions were spent on the Atlanta Express
way System. $60,000,000 was spent in Fulton
and DeKalb Counties, alone.
7— STATE FARMERS’ MARKET — In 1957,
construction was begun on the gigantic new
Georgia State Farmers Market near Atlanta.
This market is one of the finest facilities
in the world .... one of the finest achieve
ments of the Griffin admnistration
8— NEW INDUSTRIES—Industrial expansion
in Georgia reached a new high during the
Griffin Years, and 1 Georgia led all other
Southern States in industrial expansion.
Hundreds of new industries, for which Gov
ernor Griffin deserves credit, could be named,
but the $50,000,000 Continental Can plant at
Augusta is an outstanding example.
9— GRACEWOOD HOSPITAL — During the
Griffin Years, a new hospital building, seven
50-bed dormitories, and an 80-bed dormitory
wing were built at Gracewood home for men
tally-retarded children. Included was the
first such home for Negro children in the
State.
10—HOSPITALS AND HEALTH CENTERS—
During his administration, Governor Griffin
emphasized construction of hospitals and
health centers, taking full advantage of the
Federal Hill-Burton program.
The above is only a partial list of the benefits to Georgia and Georgians
during the GRIFFIN YEARS. And these benefits were not confined to one,
or a few, localities, but were scattered all over Georgia.
What he HAS DONE for Georgia is reason
enough to vote for Marvin Griffin on Sept 12
But, his PROGRAM OF PROGRESS for
Georgia during the next Griffin Admin
istration gives added reason to support
him.
We urge YOU to consider carefully all the above facts.
Do not be deluded by falsehoods and half truths
Move Georgia forward with a man at the helm who
did a good job for you once... AND WILL DO SO AGAIN.
